In the West of Ireland in 1939 a young novelist rents a lonely cottage to write his new book in peace.

Almost at once, and without great resistance, he is seduced by the wife of the local squire. Harriet s husband is an older man – hot-tempered, impoverished, gone to seed – who once fought famously against the Black and Tans. Soon this eternal triangle becomes a local scandal, and the atmosphere of threat and violence, intensified by the approaching war in Europe, leads to a horrific murder.

The Private Wound is Nicholas Blake s last book, written with such intensity of feeling and depth of character that it is widely regarded as his best.

Really splendid. When they come round to having a Crime-writer Laureate, Mr Blake s brow is there for the wreathing – The Times
